Last season, Aston Villa finished fourth in the Premier League and qualified for the Champions League.
For the moment, the Villans are a little further behind in the standings with an eighth place, four points from the top 4. To try to grab positions, the club wants to strengthen itself and an agreement has reportedly been reached with a very prominent winger at the moment. moment.
Accord total
According to Sky Sport, Donyell Malen will commit to the English fairly quickly after Borussia Dortmund reached an agreement. 25 million euros will enter the coffers of the German club, which will see bonuses of up to 5 million, including 3 guaranteed, added. There would only be a few small details left to sort out.
Aged 25, Malen trained at Ajax before joining Arsenal. The Gunners then sold him to PSV before he made his professional debut. Having distinguished himself with the Dutch club, he would move to Dortmund in 2021 for 30 million euros.
No added value
The German club will therefore not make a profit from the sale of Malen but will more or less recover its investment and will be able to use the money to find one or another reinforcement. Eighth in the Bundesliga, the club will want to take advantage of the second part of the season to move up the standings.
